Synopsis de l’éditeur
Fortunately for students of rhetorical history, especially those interested in post-Worl War II discourse, Bernard K. Duffy and Ronald H. Carpenter have written a thorough and insightful book that explores the warrior as wordsmithh and explains how MacArthur utilized in his quest for greatness....Second, Duffy and Carpenter demonstrate that a well-crafted rhetorical analysis offers a unique perspective that complements the work of historians, political scientists, and other scholars. This bookis neither a biography tolf through the lens of oratory nor a demographic description of the general's various public speeches. Instead, the authors identify the most significant oratorical events of MacArthur's career and use the tools of rhetorical criticism to illuminate how speechmaking contributed to his leadership. - Southern Communication Journal ...[the authors] have assembled all of his speeches and carefully dissected them for both meaning and clarity. This monumental work cuts through the myths and legends that have grown up around MacArthur since his death as well as giving the reader a well-balanced an accurate portrayal of both the man and his oratorical studies. - The Stars and Stripes Scholarly, well informed, critical analysis through case studies of the general's skillfully constructed use of rhetoric in oratory... - Cellar Arrivals Lire la suite...
